Popis: Abstract Coronavirus disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) is a highly spread infectious disease around the world. This infectious disease impacts whole body systems, specifically on respiratory system. This 57‐year‐old women had diagnosed COVID‐19 positive and progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) within 1 week. Mechanical ventilation with protective lung strategy, prone position could not reverse the worsen hypoxemia and bilateral lung infiltration. Recruitment manoeuvre was proceeded with 40–40 strategy and protective/ventilation tool (P/V tool). After 4 days (8 rounds) of recruitment manoeuvre, oxygenation level and lung compliance showed dramatic improvement. The patient was finally extubated at COVID‐19 Day 40 and discharged with long term oxygen use at COVID‐19 Day 60. In this case, we report how recruitment manoeuvre can improve severe hypoxemia and bilateral lung infiltration dramatically in ARDS.
